I am a big fan of this character, and generally like the work of Martin Short all around. This incredibly decent cartoon was on in 1988 or so, and ran a whopping 13 episodes. It is full of physical comedy for the kids and has some subtle stuff for grown ups. Count Floyd is very funny, but also very decent. Give me a break, this should have run for five years. Ed has a fine supporting case, including the lovely Miss Tina Malone and her precocious but nice enough brother, his rat Sheldon and his deadly goldfish Moby. The stories meander all over the place, but the episodes are only 22 minutes, so it all works out very well. There are even some science lessons in there from the Gustav Brothers. The voice cast is amazing as well.
It's available from Amazon. Get it, I must say!
